Gifts that show both of your places

The Long Distance Keychain is laser engraved on a 1 inch stainless steel charm with your two states, your initials, and a small heart between them. It comes in gold, silver, black, or rose gold. Lots of couples order two, one for each set of keys, so you both carry the same thing.

Gifts built around your song or a date

Put the song you always play on video calls onto the Spotify Glass Plaque, with a favorite photo and a code that opens the song in Spotify. Or mark the night you met, or the day you finally close the distance, with the Moon Phase Night Light. Both come with a warm or RGB LED stand.

Gifts for the time between visits

The Polaroid Photo Night Light holds six photos with captions, one for each visit. For something small to mail with a letter, the Car Visor Photo Clip keeps your photo on their sun visor, and the Cartoon Photo Keychain turns the two of you into a cartoon on clear acrylic.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good gift for a long distance boyfriend or girlfriend?

A Long Distance Keychain with both of your states laser engraved on stainless steel is the classic, and at $20.95 it's easy to order a matching pair. For something bigger, the Spotify Glass Plaque puts your song and a photo on an LED stand.

Can we get matching keychains?

Yes. Order two Long Distance Keychains with the same two states, one for each of you, in the same finish or two different ones.

Can you ship a gift directly to my partner in another state?

Absolutely. Add the recipient's address at checkout and we ship directly with no invoice in the box. Add Premium Gift Wrapping at checkout for a gift box and a gift card with your message.

How long does a personalized long distance gift take?

We email your proof within 24 hours and make your gift in 3 to 5 business days after you approve it. Delivery time depends on how far your partner is from California, and Rush Production cuts production to 1 to 2 business days.
